Nothing in return, insisted! If you absolutely can't shake the compulsion, then pay it forward ;) I got in the habit of sending people CDs from amazon while doing my shopping for exchange partners and just went with it - I have a passion for sharing the music I love

Ok then, I went ahead and paid it forward today to two fine Head-Casers who will each receive 1 CD that I've selected for them (so I hope they like them, it was a bit of a gamble). 1 of the HC-ers is Iron_Dreamer, was tricky picking something out for him without asking him any questions that would've given it away... ;)

Listening to the first of two cd's received from Nate. First up is Rykarda Parasol to be followed by Who Killed Amanda Palmer. Thanks!

Nate has great taste! :D

I :ian: Ms. Parasol's album. "Texas Midnight Radio" is gorgeous.

I received Tepid Peppermint Wonderland: A Retrospective by the Brian Jonestown Massacre from diebenkorn. Really cool DOUBLE CD! And what's even cooler is that diebenkorn and I got to meet at the NYC Meet and discuss tunes and gear and such. THANKS JUDD!

Peter is easy. He likes slow tone poems on period instruments. >:D

Actually I don't think he would've minded that either. ;) His Last.fm library is the craziest thing I've ever seen - tons of metal music, and then out of nowhere, some film soundtrack or classical composer. Talk about polar opposites!

Got these from JBLoud! The Wendy Sutter disc was on my wish list and the Adele was a surprise pick so I look forward to discovering that album!

Happy Holidays all!

Thanks JB! :headcase:

Roine Stolt - Wall Street Voodoo

Shpongle - Nothing lasts, but nothing is lost

I've listened briefly to both albums and they're excellent. I was familiar with The Flower Kings, but this Roine Stolt solo album is very far from prog, it's more like 70's bluesy classic rock. The Shpongle album is very good, trippy music with some similarities to Infected Mushroom, but smoother and even weirder. Good job on your music choice Jackson! :)

Opened up my exchange gift from Reksy (after making sure it didn't smell like rotting flesh) ...

I managed to wait until Christmas to open Riceboy's discs and I was treated to:

Jake Shimabukura Walking Down Rainhill

and Makaha Sons of Ni'ihau Ho'oluana

The Jake is great and I look forward to hearing the Hawaiian stylings of the Makaha Sons! Thanks so much Ricey! Merry Christmas again, everybody. :D

Tyler (Sherwood) sent me:

Mahavishnu-InnerMountainFlame.jpg

I haven't listened to it yet, I'm in the process of adding the 17 CDs I got for Christmas into iTunes now. My dad predicts that I'll love it though.

Many thanks dude!

I'm so happy you are enjoying the Jake :D. I really, really like the Makaha Sons. I would say that is Israel's first breakout album when he was playing with the Makaha Sons until he went solo and sang "What a Wonderful World". That album has a lot of classic Hawaiian tunes on it. I am still listening to the 100 Years Jazz Guitar and Lucinda Willliams. Thanks again and Have a Merry Xmas Al :)
